CAUTION: PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE LOAD. Do NOT apply voltage or current with
power switched OFF. Turn ON the power switch to the load PRIOR to applying voltage or
current to the input terminals (i.e., before turning on the power supply under test).

The GPIB connector on the rear panel connects the SLH-series high power load to the
controller and to other GPIB devices. A GPIB system can be connected in any configuration
(star, linear, or both), with the following two provisions:
1. There are no more than 15 devices, including the controller.
2. The maximum length of all cables combined is 20 meters, calculated at 2 meters times
the number of devices connected.
Please ensure that the lock screws are firmly hand-tightened; use a screwdriver only for the
removal of screws.
